Opinión de los críticos
fter devastating frost in 2017 and killer mildew in 2018, the vintage for the red 2019 Gaba do Xil Tinto from Valdeorras was healthier and the crop was good, save for some hail in specific vineyards during the summer. It was a ripe, healthy and balanced year. This is a young, unoaked Mencía with 13.44% alcohol that fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel, where it matured for 12 months before bottling. It's intensely aromatic and expressive, varietal and with the wild rusticity of the zone. The palate is medium-bodied, with very fine tannins and a soft mouthfeel. 96,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2020.
Lots of dark berries with spice and rust character. It’s medium-bodied with dark fruit and pepper. Drink now.

Expresa bien la mencía de Valdeorras, en la nariz y sobre todo en la boca. Sabroso y fácil de beber por su buen equilibrio. Buena RCP.
